He told Redskins Nation host Larry Michael that he likes what he sees from the Redskins so far in 2012, particularly the way they conduct themselves off the field.

"What about this generation? I like these young men," he said. "I think you have a good base of character young men and I think that's what people always wondered about.

"They still want to talk about Charles Mann and Darrell Green and Art Monk and all those guys, but I think we do have some solid young men here today."

This past summer, Green made himself available to the players, and got to spend some time with the leaders of the new-look squad.

"I spent time with Pierre this summer and got to know him," Green said. "I really like that young man. One of my favorites is Josh . Josh is another little guy like me. Chris --just so many of them; so many guys."

"I think 's an exciting guy, but what I think I'm starting to see in him is the maturity it takes to play the whole game and not just the exciting plays," Green said. "The mundane plays of dropping back, staying in there, delivering the ball and checking off.

"He's doing all of those things that I think sometimes can get overlooked because he is so dynamic and that one dynamic play can take some of the attention."

good stuff from Darrell Green. I'm sure it means a lot to hear from a skins legend like Green to say good things about them. Coming from a legend Telling a young team that they have great character means a lot, I'm sure._________________RIP SSFmike23md

No doubt. I think DGreen might be my favorite Redskin from that era. He brought amazing skill every time he lined up and delivered alot of huge plays . And he always conducted himself on and off the field with so much class. We will never have another Redskin quite like him and what he brought to this team_________________
